I'm not sure I consider this a bug.

If you run mozilla (double click a desktop shortcut or ...) and it gives you 
mail then I think we're as correct as we should be.

If the first time you clicked on the moz tray icon you got a mail window and 
the second time you clicked it we loaded a browser window many people would 
file bugs complaining about this confusion (see also behavior of the navigator 
button in the nc4 component bar)

[Considering timless's comment]

Presently, if a window is available and you click on the salamander
then that window is popped up. Therefore the turbo button right now
demonstrates such an anomolus (oh for a spell checker in mozilla!)
behaviour; is the mail window is minimised any 'click' then you get
the mail window, otherwise you get the browser.

Surely, if someone sets a mozilla preference to boot up with a
mail window, that is what they expect.

-> blaker

Comment 7

[Paul Chen]

nav triage team:

Really reassigning to blaker and moving to mozilla0.9.5 since there are other
-turbo bugs that are more pressing to fix

Comment 8

[Jesse Ruderman]

See also bug 99856, "double-clicking turbo icon unmaximizes an open browser 
window" (should open a new window, IMO).

Comment 9

[Peter Trudelle]

Mass moving lower-priority bugs to 0.9.6 (with Blake's pre-consent) to make room
for remaining 0.9.4/eMojo bugs and MachV planning, performance and feature work.
 If anyone disagrees with the new target, please let me know.
